It is many years now si nce I first met Mr. Sinclair on the Board of a Sub-economic Housing Soci ety in and when it became clear that Mr. Whitmore Richards was adamant in his decision to resign his Chairmanship of the Board, it was most comforting to find that Mr. Sinclair was prepared to succeed hi m. I am guiltily conscious that I am inclined to leave a great deal of d ifficult and tiresome detail to my Chairman, but if I do, it is because I have come to rely implicitly on his kindness, his generosity, his down right common sense. Not only to the Chairman, but to the whole Board mus t I express my gratitude for the way in which they have given us their t ime and thought in a year of expansion and consolidation such as this has been. A tremendous tribute is due too to you parents whose attitude towards the School is such a helpful one. It has seemed to me particularly this year that the School is not merely the place to which you pay enormous fees f or the so-called education of your children: it is a living entity with w hose hopes and fears, whose failures and successes, you have somehow iden tified yourselves. It is that which gives great heart to us who have to w ork out the details of our daily life. I refer, of course, to my colleagues, both on the Senior and Junior staffs whose patience is apparently inexhaustible: in spite of the heavy demands that are so often made upon it. Most particularly, I want to congratulate Miss Lewendon and her Staff for the valiant way in which they have kept u p morale during the alterations to the Junior School. The work has gone on quietly and steadily in spite of interruptions, by plumbers, painters, el ectricians, bricklayers and, most difficult of all, the banshee screaming of the circular saw. 2 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN The tremendous amount of work put in by our Staff and Senior girls for th e Fete so near the end of last year made me wonder whether I should have to strike an apologetic note when I came to the examination results of 19 52. Fortunately, however, we were able to prove that busy people do the b est work and the results are as follows: of our thirty-three Matriculatio n candidates, thirteen were placed in the first class, twelve in the seco nd, two in the third. Four girls who obtained School Leaving Certificates in December converted these to full Matriculation Certificates in March. Distinctions were gained in English, French, and Biology. For the first time we had Distinctions in the Laer Taalbond Eksamen, two passing in the Hoer Graad met lof, eleven others in the Hoer Graad; all the rest, except one, passed in the Laer Graad. In music all our candidates passed, two with Distinction in Grade II, one with Honourable Mention in Grade IV and one with credit in Grade VII. Dr. Anne Cleaver Scholarships were won in the Entrance Examination by Clare Brayshaw and by Judith Plumpton, both already members of the Sch ool. Two girls already holding scholarships in the School are to be gi ven the status of Dr. Anne Cleaver Scholars- Anne Murray and Wendy Sta llard. While on the subject of examinations, I want to say a word about the Join t Matriculation and its value as a qualification for University entrance. It is accepted by English Universities as the equivalent of the General Schools Examination on the Ordinary Level; it does not exempt candidates from taking at least two subjects on what is called the Advanced Level, n ormally taken at least a year after those on the ordinary level. It is in teresting though to hear that Claudie Flamand who matriculated here with a First Class last December, took English and French at the Advanced Leve l in England in July, passing in English and gaining Distinction in French. Turning now to the physical training of the School, I have to report tha t our tennis team though steadily improving, has just not managed to wor k its way out of the Second League. I am always sorry that no other scho ols play Lacrosse which is a beautiful and satisfying game. In the Life Saving Examinations we gained seventeen Intermediate Certificates, seven teen Bronze Medals, seven Bronze Crosses, five Silver Medals and two Ins tructor's Certificates. At the risk of appearing to boast, we have brought some of our sports tr ophies into the Hall today for you to look at. The Inter-High School Shi eld for Hockey became ours at the end of the winter, but will not be for mally handed over till the beginning of the New Year. There you see the Reliance Cup for the winner of the Inter-High Schools Girls' Swimming Ga la and the Shield for the best of the schools whose numbers are less tha n three hundred-the inference being that so small a school cannot hope t o win outright. Roedean won the Distin Cup for the Under 16 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 3 Relay, the Lavenstein Cup for the Under 14 Relay, and Margaret Mackenzie is responsible for the Asher Swede Cup for the 100 yards Freestyle Open. It is gratifying to come home with a cup for individual prowess, but I am proud to say that it was in the relay races with teams of three or six g irls that we gained most points in the gala. It was a great day and many of you have already shown your interest in th e most practical way by the highly efficient filtration plant that makes our swimming bath a thing of cerulean beauty. Its former turgid waters ha d caused more concern and anxiety for the health of the School than I was aware of. Just as my own anxiety had reached its peak, I was greatly rel ieved to learn that on the 25th anniversary of an agriculturally famous e xperimental farm run by Imperial Chemical Industries in Berkshire, the im portant discovery was made that the dried algae of a stagnant pool contai ned fifty per cent protein content, equal to twice that of a pork chop or herring. It may be, that this accounted for the abnormally good health e njoyed by the School during the exciting weeks of preparation for the gal a. I do not often make personal references, but perhaps I may be allowed this one: Mac was a Bear, The Bear was bulgy, The Bulge was Algae, Two pork chops and a herring. So, I come to the wonderful gifts that the School has received during the year. The filtration plant then is the outcome of much strenuous work on the part of the Coronation Gift Committee and some of the more technical ly-minded of our fathers have given and are still giving tremendously of their time in supervising the electrical and chemical sides of the projec t, making all the delicate adjustments to its complicated machinery. We a re indeed grateful, although there are moments I am told, when our former ly intrepid divers hesitate to plunge from the top stage into the pool wh ose bottom has so long lurked in obscurity and is now so clear and appare ntly so close. Last Speech Day, I reported the Jubilee Fund as having reached £12,000. Since then there have been no major efforts, but contributions have con tinued to come in and have brought the total up by almost another £2,00 0. In addition to this, that little optional item of lOs. per term on yo ur accounts for the Building Fund is treated so kindly that in the last three years since the Earle Block was completed, the sum has reached £1 ,650. Since I began to write my report, a further sum of £500 has been present ed by that most generous body, the Council of Education on the School's J ubilee. If I may be allowed to quote from their letter, "this gift is a m ark of appreciation of the excellent work done by the School and as a tok en of its own interest in the progress of the school with which it has be en so long connected." Only this morning did I hear of another wonderful gift of £500 4 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN to the School from a once-and-for-all allocation of moneys donated by Mr . George Strakosch to education as a memorial to his late uncle, Sir Hen ry Strakosch. A new Prize has been endowed by Mr. Viney and an addition has been made to the Jubilee Prizes, endowed last year by an anonymous donor. One pa rent has given us an alabaster statuette, another a silver candelabra a nd there have been splendid additions made to the books in the Library. Two umpires' chairs for the tennis courts were presented by leaving gi rls and there have been gifts of trees and plants for the garden. The exchange of ground on the borders of the playing fields and the kopje has not yet gone through, but we are in touch with the Municipality about it and I still hope for a great arbor day when the School and the Old Girl s and Parents will plant trees for future generations. It is significant, I think, that with so much attention focussed on the ra ising of money for the Jubilee Buildings at the Junior School, there have yet been numbers of gifts made to the Chapel which forms so strong a centr e of the deepest life of the School. Fresh lighting has been installed and a new carpet laid at the altar and there is a further gift of £20, as ye t unspent. Our Chapel, as you know, my Lord, is a very small place-too sma ll now for a confirmation to be held in it, although the confirmation clas ses can still be conducted there, and so far it is able to hold all our co mmunicants. This year twenty-nine girls were confirmed in St. George's Chu rch in and four girls were received into full membership of the P resbyterian Church of St. Mark's, . The Girl Guide Company has been very active this year in spite of having to work without a Captain for this last half-term. Miss Ferguson left for Rhodesia in August, but with the help of our Queen's Guide, Jennifer Ham lin, the Company has flourished. The real purpose of a Guide Company in a school like this is to provide future leaders for this great movement an d the winning of competitions, thoilgh gratifying when it happens-as it h as done this year, is not of primary importance. I hear that our present Guides are anxious to run a Brownie Pack in the Junior School, an indicat ion, I think, of the value of their training. The Science Club has had a most interesting year with lectures from Dr. Bozzoli on Sound and Noise, Dr. James Gear on Polio Research, and Mrs. Plumstead on Fossils. It is extremely kind of these experts, some of i nternational fame, to give time and thought to a small school like ours elves. We have also a Junior Science Club, very active and enthusiastic , whose members have read papers on various subjects during the year. The Dramatic Society occasionally arranges an uproarious evening for us and the entertainments prepared for House Nights have sometimes reache d a high standard. The School Play this year showed considerable talent , I think, in spite of mechanical difficulties THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 5 over which I draw a veil, quite an easy thing to do metaphorically! The Photographic Society has also been busy and some of its exhibits yo u will see later in the Freer Room where the work produced by the Inter -House Art and Craft competition is on view. I hope that you will also visit the studio. On the musical side, we have had recitals from Mr. Kendall Taylor, Dr. St einitz, Bertha Hagart, one of our own Old Girls, and Mr. John Connell. Another of our Old Girls, Maud Sumner, gave us a most interesting and e nlightening talk on a number of her own pictures which she allowed us t o have in our own Hall for more than a week. Among the lecturers who have visited the School is Colonel Spencer Cha pman, Mrs. Beach with her puppets and yet another Old Roedeanian, Bern ys Rissik who gave us a most vivid account of her world travels in the past four years. Expeditions have also been made from time to time to the opera and to s ee really worthwhile films and our prefects spent a most enjoyable even ing at the Helpmekaar School at a performance of an operetta in Afrikaa ns. Through the kindness of one of our parents, a number of senior girls were taken down a gold mine towards the end of last year, and visits have bee n made to a soap factory, a printing press and the Domestic Science girls this year have visited a laundry, a flour mill and a bakery. The Parent-Teachers' Association has given us some interesting hours, no tably the symposium arranged at the beginning of the year when three of the fathers gave us ideas about careers for girls, and later, Dr. Bieshe uvel himself gave a most stimulating talk on the value of Aptitude Testi ng. A lecture on Speech Therapy by Mrs. Somerville who was once Head Gir l of this School, was also greatly appreciated. There is no need for me to describe to you in detail the great day of the laying of the Foundation Stone of the Jubilee Block for many of you were present. Through the great kindness and extraordinary agility of Mr. Aar land Ussher, we have a record of the day in glorious technicolour. It was a great satisfaction to have representatives of all the fifty years of o ur existence gathered together on that day and to have this important sto ne laid by Dame Emmeline Tanner who makes the strongest link in the chain that joins us to our sister School in England. New links are always bein g forged in that chain and this year, three more of our girls have been t ransferred to Roedean, Brighton, where they find themselves at home and, I am glad to say, well up to standard. The Annual Conference for Social Study was held again this year at St. Benedict's with Miss Paver of Kingsmead as hostess and organiser. The talk given to the School by the three girls who represented Roedean a t the Conference, showed the importance of this venture and made me wi sh again that we could multiply 6 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN these conferences so that many more of the maturer members of our schoo ls could gain a clearer picture of the startling contrast between our e asy lives and those of our by no means distant neighbours in Orlando an d . It is natural, I suppose, on this Speech Day of ours to concentrate atten tion upon our own activities. Indeed, that is what my report is supposed to do: but I think that we are all conscious of the fact that the years i n school are not an end in themselves and that their real value is only t o be assessed in the after years. The larger issues are not, I hope, forg otten and that is why we are so eager to hear you, My Lord, whom we know to have so keen a vision of the true end and purpose of education. We realise that the Private Schools play only a small part in the whole fi eld of education, but we know from the strenuous way in which you tackled the Education Ordinance last year, that your faith in the possibilities of the private schools is great. It is our earnest wish and endeavour to jus tify that faith, and to give to the country more doctors, more nurses and many more teachers. "By 1 heir fruits ye shall know them." FAREWELL TO MRS. FREER During thirty-three of the fifty years that we have been celebrating in our Golden Jubilee, Mrs. Freer has been part and parcel of the School. S ome of us remember "little Miss Saise" who came out from Bristol Univers ity to teach Science at Roedean in 1920. From the stories told of her by T.L. it is easy to realise that she developed very quickly into the willing horse who took a part with instant and apparent relish in every job that needed doing. On her marriage to Mr. Percy Freer who became Librarian of the Universit y of the Witwatersrand, she left Roedean for a few years, but in 1932 sh e came back in a presumably part-time temporary capacity. At the end of the following year, she found herself acting as Headmistress during an a nxious and difficult period of the School's history. For twelve years thereafter, Mrs. Freer, as Vice-Principal, took upon her self the multifarious duties and matters of detail that make for the smoo th running of a rapidly growing school. Always an authority on procedure, she put herself firmly in the background and there she took a tremendous part of the strain. When in 1946 she laid down her office as Vice-Principal, she took over the training of the Lower Vth as form mistress, motherly but stern . Here especially, she strove to infuse into the School, the spirit of hard work and meticulous attention to detail that is so characteristic of herself . Her work in her own special field in the Laboratory, with its touch of shee r scholarship, inspired a long line of Roedean scientists THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 7 to go on to the Universities where they have done her the greatest credit.

But it was not only the scholars whom she kept up to the mark. Her coll eagues in the common room are well aware of the encouragement and pleas ure in their work that came from her cheerful example. Incapable of glo ssing over any mistake, yet kindly and clear-sighted about how to put i t right, she set an example which should be an inspiration to many. For myself I can never express my debt to her. With her practical hands, her keen mind and her great heart, Margaret Freer has been the greatest standby to Roedean in dark days as well as fine, for three and thirty y ears. E.K.l.L.

FOUNDATION DAY, 1954 This year Foundation Day was held on Saturday, February 20th. This enab led Old Girls now at the University to attend. We all wakened in high s pirits to find a lovely sunny day awaiting us. We donned our most festi ve-looking holiday garments. Some spent the first part of the morning a t the morning market which was held at St. George's, and thoroughly enj oyed ourselves, buying a great variety of goods, from sweets and cakes to potted plants. We then splashed about in the swimming bath, or made ourselves comfortable in some shady and secluded spot with a few rugs, books and a gramophone. Meanwhile, the Old Girls had arrived and soon t he tennis match was in full swing, with eager spectators lining the cou rts. It was an exciting match, and the final result was a win to the School. By about midday the sky began to look decidedly overcast. We nevertheles s settled down to an appetising picnic lunch on the Plesaunce. As we had feared, it soon began to rain, and we were forced to adjourn indoors. T he rain continued steadily until tea time. Fortunately, this did not spo il the Old Girls' meeting, which took place from three until four o'cloc k. This over, we changed into our green dresses. Tea was served in the d ining-room and Scollay. A magnificent cake decorated with the crest in i cing sugar was then cut on the terrace by Miss Le Maitre, and portions h anded round. At five o'clock we all went to the Founders' Hall, where speeches were made, and songs sung. Caroline O'Connor in the opening speech referred to the successes in games; Margaret Macarthur, our tennis captain, repl ied. We sang "The Cricket First Eleven.' Jane Smetham then addressed a speech to the staff, and we sang "The Best School of All." Mrs. Hill an swered for the staff and spoke of the help of the prefects in a very am using way. Elizabeth Sinclair, our Head Girl, replying on behalf of the prefects, made a witty speech. We all sang "Giants" lustily, and then Helen Cluver spoke about the Old Girls. Her speech was answered by her sister, Ann Cluver, who made mention of Roedean, Brighton. After that, we sang "Forty Years On" and then "The Song of the Houses" with great gusto. 12 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN We were very lucky in having Mrs. Sanderson with us, for she had been on the staff at Roedean, Brighton. She spoke in an interesting way, re plying for Roedean, Brighton. Miss Le Maitre answered for Roedean, Sou th Africa. She also read out the telegrams from Old Girls who were una ble to attend. Then we sang "The Song of the Founders." Thus ended a most enjoyable day. It was generally felt, I think, that t his new plan for Foundation Day was more successful than the previous y ears' arrangements. When our guests had departed, we were shown three v ery interesting films. Then we retired to bed, exhausted but happy. A.

Most of our guests swam or played in the Gym Hall all the afternoon. T here was some commotion when a small child fell into the swimming bath . However, she was rescued promptly. At four o'clock we all went to th e dining-room where tea was served. At this stage, a two-month's old b aby made her appearance. She is the youngest grandchild ever to have b een present at such an event. As it was raining, the Fairy Godmother hid in the hall. When she had rec eived the toys, all went outside again as the rain had by that time ceas ed. By five o'clock most of the guests had departed. Thus ended a very e njoyable day. E.

The School moved in the Michaelmas quarter. Three days before term began, no furniture had appeared . . . the packages had been held up at Johannesburg Station "insufficient ly addressed." On August 29th, Lady FitzPatrick performed the opening ceremony and th e School had the wonderful privilege of a visit from Penelope and Doro thy Lawrence to celebrate the event. 1914. Forty Years Ago The greatest event of the year was the presentat ion of the sundial by the S.A.O.R.A. in memory of Florence Raine. It w as unveiled by Lena Scott (now grandmother of Elizabeth James) on Foun dation Day. 16 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN The sick wing has been completed. We are very glad to have it, as we we re rather crushed before. School Officers: M. Johnstone, I. van den Berg. 1924. Thirty Years Ago The outstanding event of these six months is the completion of the new St. Agnes House. Lucy Sutherland obtained four first classes and honours in her B.A. and has won a Municipal Scholarship of £150 for two years to read for History Honours Scholarship at Oxford. (She is now Principal of Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford.) Bertha Hagart has won an 80 guinea piano in an open competition at the London Festival from 105 competitors. Another epoch was reached in the ending of the term of office of the fi rst Governing Body of Roedean. The new chairman is the Hon. Mr. Justice Feetham. Senior Prefects: M. Reading, J. Pomfret, M. Pritchard. 1934. Twenty Years Ago Extract from Mrs. Freer's report on Speech Day, 1933: We look forward to the arrival of Miss Le Maitre ... from Roedean , Brighton. . . . We feel that her appointment here will be another great link between the two schools. The main part of the Buckle Memorial will take the form of wrought iron ga tes at the head of St. Katherine's drive. The Chapel is now being erected in memory of Nancy Carver . . . simple a nd dignified, a quiet little room with empty slits for windows and as ye t no means of lighting . . . out of the stirrings of a generous imaginat ion of one who wishes to remain anonymous, has come the wonderful offer to glaze the windows and to provide seating accommodation and all lighti ng apparatus and equipment. Senior Prefect: M. Ferrar. 1944. Ten Years Ago The Vlth Form are busy young women these days. On cer tain afternoons they tear themselves from their literary and scientific l abours (with what difficulty you may imagine) and dash off-no, not to the Pictures-to Grizzley Gap or other Convalescent Hospitals, where they was h up, lay trays, and do the odd odd job, or to the Red Cross depot to pac k parcels for prisoners of war, returning at the double to practise rolle r bandages for Home Nursing. It's not much, of course, in the vastness of the war effort, and they would be the last people to make much of it, bu t school is a training for life, and for two years now the Vlth Form have been trying their hands at war work. The Conference on Social Study whic h the Senior girls from five schools attended at Roedean, was a sign of t he interest the younger generation is taking in the world which it is abo ut to enter. Foundation Day in war time. For the tennis match, we were lucky enough t o have some new balls to play with. . . . Mrs. Freer as usual was keepin g a motherly eye on all and everything, and THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN ______tt arranged hours for swimming, playing in the Gym and eatfrig^ most impor tant. Ioorb2 Round about six, the Old Girls began to arrive for supper*.1"'!\s the we ather stayed gloriously fine, we had a picnic supper the lawn. The Subs enjoyed running up and down the bank, though they were hampered in that unaccustomed pleasure by trays; of sausage rolls for their groups seated on rugs and chairs,n ^fter supper we went to the Founders' Hall for son gs and speeches:'3 Senior Prefect: A. Osborne. .nssifio THE ARMS OF ROEDEAN SCHOOL, SOUTH AFRI0A! Extract from S. A. Roedean Magazine, 1924 Our arms are an adaptation to of those of School, Brighton. The original design of the Roedean A^sJf|iy^s made by Sir John Simpson, f .r.i.b.a., the architect of tfcft parent School. I3 jon g£W In 1923 Archdeacon Cameron, at that time Chairman Council, most kindly u ndertook to modify the arms in sucli §i0v§$ as to keep the tradition a nd yet make them characteristic South Africa. Our S.A. Blazon is as foll ows: B?J.f{ Qf|g "Per fesse azure and vert; on a kopje proper in base a ycmng'3<' springbo k ewe at gaze proper, charged on the shoulder AVith a gridiron or, and go rged with an earl's coronet, to which* tfs01 attached by a chain or, a bo ok proper, lying open on the«kopjepiJ "Crest: On a wreath azure and vert a secretary bird dkatroyjjig'fa a snake all proper. }?. fc aabruO "Motto: On an scroll beneath the shield: 'Honneur aulx Dignes\','' Archdeacon Cameron had added in plain English an interpretation of the Coat of Arms: origuoirlT The young springbok ewe, looking with fearless eyeS-'out bfr t'D the boun dless veld represents the girls of the School with!)tKe g^at world before them. It takes the place of the English fbe,- tig'& be^a con stant reminder of the purpose for which the Schbbk aftd for which it was founded. The gridiron, the traditiowa^fcyfftb&f of 18 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN St. Lawrence, and the earl's coronet will for all time connect the School w ith its two foundresses and first heads. The Crest which is a purely South African addition represents the good cit izen, who searches out and ruthlessly destroys all that is vicious and har mful. The plumage of the Secretary Bird is always neat and in order; it is indeed one of the most decorative of South African birds. On account of i ts usefulness in the destruction of snakes it is protected by the State an d fitly represents the good citizen. GIRL GUIDES, 1953 During this, our Jubilee year, our Guides have prospered, although we we re unfortunately without a captain during the last term. Early in the ye ar, owing to Miss Ferguson's untiring efforts, we succeeded in gaining t he Mary Strawson Cup as the best company in the Northern District, a sta ndard we will endeavour to maintain. Our attempt in the Andrew Watt Efficiency Shield Competition was not ent irely unsuccessful, for we came second. Although without a captain at th e time, Miss Ferguson had coached us so well that we did not discredit h er. We are very proud of our first Queen's Guide, Jennifer Hamlin. She has attained the highest award possible for a Guide under seventeen. This term our numbers have increased, and we were delighted to welcome Mrs. Little as our Captain, and Mrs. Dodds as our Lieutenant. We are ve ry grateful to them for their interest and thought. Our Guide meetings are really interesting, and our School Guides a success. B. Pethick MUSICAL ACTIVITIES, 1953 Throughout the past year the School's interest in music has been activel y encouraged. We had two organ recitals, one by Mr. John Connell, the City Organist, the other by Dr. Steinetz, who is the founder of the Bach Choral Societ y and organist of St. Bartholomew's Church in London. These performance s were especially enjoyed as our own instrument was used. On two consecutive Sundays in the last term we had very enjoyable piano recitals. Mr. Kendal Taylor, who had visited us before, gave a delight ful programme. The "Moonlight Sonata" and Chopin's "Polonaise in Ab" we re outstanding. Bertha Hagart, an Old Girl of the School, played works ranging from classical to romantic and modern composers. We had more informal entertainments from members of the Staff. Miss B rown, with her clarinet, and Miss Bradbury accompanying her, gave us an idea of woodwind music. Mrs. Hull sang a number of songs, many of which were unknown to us. THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 19 Members of the Senior Music Class went to Musica Viva's Mozart night. I t was held at Melrose in a large garden which seemed to add to the char m and simplicity of the music. At the end of the year the members of th e orchestra were taken to Miss Betty Pack's String Orchestra evening. The matriculation form went to the Helpmekaar operetta, "Op die Purpe H eide." The Italian Opera Company gave several performances, three of wh ich the School attended. To some it was their first taste of opera and such masterpieces as "Faust," "Madame Butterfly" and "La Traviata" were greatly appreciated. The Music Circle has been very active. We made a visit to the City Hall one Saturday afternoon to see the organ. Mr. Connell demonstrated its capabilities and told us something about the 6,000 pipes and four manua ls. Before going to the opera we had a chance of listening to the recor ds and story of "La Traviata." The stage performance was thus more appr eciated. We have now a long-playing adjustment for the gramophone, the Music Cir cle and Dramatic Society having pooled their funds to purchase it. With enlarged subscriptions in the last term, the Music Circle bought the l ong-playing record, "The Pirates of Penzance," and we soon had the oppo rtunity of listening to the opera. "The Swan Lake Ballet" was the subje ct of the last meeting of the term. As we have had a record membership throughout the year, it was decided to make a Junior and Senior Music C ircle. The former will consist of Upper V's downwards and have its own president and secretary. THE SENIOR SCIENCE CLUB This year we have had some very interesting meetings in addition to thos e at which we were shown films on such subjects as Malaria, Oxygen and t he Principles of Electricity. During the first term, Dr. Gear, head of the Polio Research Station at Rie tfontein, talked to us on polio. He told us about the spread of the diseas e, its different types and why immunity is obtained after the disease. -Dr. Bozzoli, from the Witwatersrand University, came to talk on "Sound a nd Noise." He told us how sound travels, how it varies in pitch, and is r eceived by the ear. He explained some elementary facts about acoustics, a nd how one's voice sounds different to oneself than to others, because it is transmitted through the bones of the head as well as the air. He had many interesting instruments to illustrate his lecture. For our last meeting this year Mrs. Plumstead lectured on fossils. She tol d us how fossils are made and how they are the records of the life of thei r era, and prove the theory of evolution. 20 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN This year, as usual, the Senior Science Club has thrived under the untir ing efforts of Mrs. Freer and we are all very sad that after such a long time under her wing we are losing her. We hope, however, that she will take away happy memories of us. A. Bradford (Hon. Secretary) JUNIOR SCIENCE CLUB REPORT This year the Junior Science Club has b een very active. The number of members has steadily increased and we now have a record number of ninety-two. The money from our subscriptions has been sent to the Mayor's Flood Re lief Fund and to Queenshaven. This term, however, we decided to save t he money in hand to buy our own films, as the amount supplied to the S chool is going to be restricted. Twice a term we held our meetings in the Freer Room, when members read papers and Miss Robertson showed us films on various subjects. There were films on "Snakes," "Animals in the Lowveld," "The Evolution and B reeds of Horses," "Fungi and Basidiomycetes," "Australian Animals" and finally "Larger Mammals," all of which were most interesting and inst ructive. We owe the success and progress of the Club entirely to Miss Robertson. Through her assistance and neverfailing interest she has contributed muc h to the growth and popularity of the club. J. Scott R. Wingfield THE DRAMATIC SOCIETY In the first term Miss Weir was asked to become an honorary member of t he Dramatic Society, and it was decided to hold play-readings in which we hoped all members would be able to join. "The Man in the Bowler Hat" was the first one read and greatly enjoyed by all. A variety show was held in which each form did an act. There were some Tiller Girls, a pla y, "The Bathroom Door," a puppet show and two mimes, "Rumplestiltskin" and "Bishop Hatto." Another play-reading was held the second term; there was also an evening of plays: "The Crock, the Cock, and the Candle," "Thirty Minutes in a S treet," "The Doubtful Misfortunate of Li-Sing' and "A Little Bit of Fame and Glory" were acted. During the third term long-playing records of "Murder in the Cathedral, "Henry VIII" and "The Ghost Train" were bought. An exciting evening was spent listening to the latter. On the last Saturday of term a play compe tition was held in Scollay. On account of the exams and many end of term activities, the plays were not of a good standard, but Miss Read judged Jean Mackinnon's production of Twice's Too Much" the best, and that gro up won the prize. THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 21 THE PHOTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY Interest in photography has increased conside rably this year and the membership has grown steadily. A Photographic Section to the Art Competition is responsible for this. Many members h ave been taught to print and develop their films. During the first ter m a daylight developing tank was bought, as the dark-room is not compl etely light-proof. Mr. Swan judged our Art Competition entries, and on November 20th he gav e us an interesting talk on the Freer Room, offering helpful suggestions for the improvement of our work and giving us a brief outline of the va st field of photography. He brought some of his own lovely plates and a most enjoyable evening was spent. HOCKEY REPORT, 1953 FIRST XI Goal...... *E. Sinclair R. Wing_____ A. van Tilburg R.Back... *M. Mackenzie R.

The First XI started this season at the top of the First League with Barn ato Park High School, and by the end of the first round, we were still to p of the First League with Barnato Park High School, but as they had beat en us in one match, they received the cup. By winning all our matches dur ing the second half of the season, we remained top of the First League, a nd received the cup. This year, we entered seven of our First XI for the combined schools tri als, two of whom gained places in the first team, and one of whom obtain ed a place in the second team. The Second XI began this season in the Third League, but did not manag e to remain in this league, and at the end of the season went down to the Fourth League. The School was not victorious in any of the friendly matches this year. H ilton beat us 5 - 0, and in the Fathers' Match, although two fathers left the field whenever their team got a goal, and returned when we scored, t hey beat us 7-5. The result of the Staff Match was a win to the Staff by two goals, but the School was handicapped by cushions tied round their wa ists, and shoes dangling at their knees. The House Matches were played with the usual determination and enjoymen t. In the First XI matches, St. Ursula met St. Katherine in the finals, and St. Ursula won by three goals. The Under 15 finals were played bet ween St. Katherine and St. Agnes, and the latter house won by three goa ls. 22 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN The Under 15 teams have had a more successful season this year. The A XI played three matches, of which they lost one, and drew two. The BX I played two matches, both of which they won. We have been very successful on the whole, this season, and there are a number of promising players in the lower part of the School. Julia Leycester, Captain LACROSSE REPORT, 1953 Goal...... E.

The match resulted in a win to the School, with ten goals to two. The House Matches were played with the usual vigour and a great deal of team spirit was shown, the House Captains practising hard with their t eams before the matches. Both the Over and Under XV matches resulted in a win to St. Ursula. Thelma Andrews, our captain, is to be congratulated on receiving her col ours at the end of the season. Everyone played and practised with much keenness throughout the season , and the future of our teams is most promising. A. Duncan M. Finlay TENNIS REPORT, 1953 Although the First VI were rather unsuccessful in the first term of the y ear, practice and good coaching improved them to such an extent that they only just failed to rise into the First League, by the margin of three g ames. The Second Team, however, moved up to join the first in the Second League. As usual, matches were played with the Fathers and against the Mothers and Staff, who beat the First VI but were beaten by the second. In the last term of the year F. Waring, J. Farquharson, E. Bristowe and M. Macarthur played in the Inter-High Schools Tournament at Ellis Park . Roedean were given a bye into the second round, then they met and bea t Loreto Convent and Springs High. They were knocked out in the semi-fi nals by Parktown. House matches were won by Bears and Lambs in the Open and Under 15 respectively. Elizabeth Bristowe, Captain THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 23 SWIMMING REPORT, 1953 1953 has been a successful year for our swimming team. We began the sea son's activities by sending a team of six freestyle swimmers to the Uni versity Gala to compete in a race. We came first. Later, we took part in a match against Kingsmead and J.G.H.S., which w e won. Then the House Matches were held. St. Ursula's House won the Open and S t. Agnes' the Under 15. Diving was included for the first time in many years in the events. In the Inter-Schools Gala we won with 113 points, Parktown High School being second with 94 points. We have to thank Miss Green and Miss Hill for their coaching of "the w eeds." They showed us what teamwork meant and because of their efforts we won. We obtained the following trophies: The Reliance Cup...... for winning the Gala. The Small Schools Shield for gaining first place against the schools with less than 300 pupils. The Distin Shield...... 6 x 50 yds., Under 16 Freestyle Team Race. The Lavenstein Cup. ... 6 x 50 yds., Under 14 Freestyle Team Race. The Asher Swede Cup .. 100 yds., Open Freestyle Race, won by M. Mackenzie. Margaret Mackenzie won the South African Under 19 220 yds. and 100 y ds. Freestyle Schools' Championship. Susan Roberts was second in the South African Under 14 100 yds. Schools' Championship. Both represented the Transvaal schools. During the Christmas Term we had only one race and that was against St. Mary's Under 16 and Under 14 Teams. Both our teams won. In the Life Saving Competition, 16 people obtained their Intermediate Cert ificates, 14 their Bronze Medallions, and 13 their Bronze Crosses, three a n Instructor's Certificate, and four Awards of Merit. St. Agnes' and St. K atherine's tied in the Inter-House Life Saving Competition. At the beginning of the last term of 1953, a new filter was donated. The b ath was also painted a lovely fresh blue. On behalf of the girls, I should like to thank the parents very much indeed for their generous and much ap preciated gift. Molly-Ann McWilliam-Smith, Captain, 1953 Note: As we go to press we are delighted to announce that for the seco nd year in succession, Roedean won the Inter-Schools Gala. Six records were broken by the School competitors. .'24 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN AN ACCOUNT OF THE SCHOOL PLAY, 1953 v7/This year our School play, "Quality Street" by J. M. Barrie,:ms held on October 23rd and 24th. On both nights we had a large and very respons ive audience (which was most satisfying). 2 The play took us right into the early nineteenth century, with its dai nty bonneted ladies and boastful young gallants. Margaret (Macarthur was most convincing as the genteel maiden lady, Susan Throssel. Susan Arrow smith as her younger sister Phoebe was so afraid of being unladylike tha t she immediately earned everybody's sympathy. Thea Vigne played the gal lant Captain Brown who made quite a stir in Quality Street and sent its dear old ladies into a delightful flutter. Even in more serious moments she played this (difficult part with courage and conviction. Everyone to ok to the impertinent maid Patty, who always had such a merry twinkle in her eye and was played by Elizabeth Sinclair, whilst Jean Pope, Mary Fi nlay and Agnes Stevenson acted well as the old ladies across the road wh o were so full of gossip and curiosity-ladies typical of the period. No- one could forget Sandra Hepker as the vivacious little "goose" or Margar et Mackenzie as the young gallant,' Ensign Blades, who was popularly kno wn as "Apple Cheeks." While enjoying the plights and predicaments and "all the stirring news of Quality Street," we were still able to appreciate the humorous side of t he life led then, and we all had a very enjoyable evening. After such ple asant entertainment we merely laughed at a slight show of temperament on the part of the curtains at the end of the performance. Especial mention must be made of the beautiful costumes and general high standard of the production, which were due to the kind efforts of Miss Marriott and Miss Weir. THE SCHOOL'S SOCIAL STUDY CONFERENCE The object of this conference was to give schoolgirls some idea of the co nditions in which the Natives live and of the efforts being made to help them. Seven schools were represented so that only a few girls could go from ea ch school. The three representatives of Roedean in 1953 were Cynthia Jan e Ball, Natalie Coke and I. Miss Paver, Headmistress of Kingsmead, was i n charge of the conference, and we all stayed at St. Benedict's House in . We started off by visiting Reformatory, the on ly reformatory for Native boys in the country. We then went to Shanty To wn in Orlando where Natives live in incredible squalor in the breeze-blo ck shelters erected "temporarily" nine years ago. We were taken to Ezenzeleni where the Native blind are taught to make m attresses, brushes and baskets, and to the Margaret Ballinger Home for crippled children. THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 25 We attended Mass at the Church of Christ the King, Sophiatown, on the Sunday, and heard the service conducted in six different languages. We went to evensong once at the Native school, the Priory, and each morn ing we had Communion in the Chapel at St. Benedict's House. We were addressed by Father Trevor Huddleston, Miss Ponsonby, secreta ry of the African Feeding Scheme, Mr. David Murray, who is in charge of the social services in Johannesburg, and a Native speaker, a membe r of the Alexandra Health Committee, all of whom told us much of what was being done for the Natives and what they lacked. All the girls at the conference decided to try to provide some swings fo r the children who live in Shanty Town. An appeal was published in The S tar and several swings were obtained, also money for providing others. W e were very glad to be able to do something to help. C. Ellis WIDE OPEN SPACES The plain stretches away in front of your eyes, and behind you, solid and homely, is Zomba Plateau, with its rock-face shimmering in the light of the setting sun. The plain is dotted with bushes, and at the far end, sur rounded by hills, is Lake Chilwa. The plain is silent, bare and eerie in this fading light. As the shadows lengthen, you have a feeling of a dark void, and of the terrible loneliness which comes when a loved one has die d. The colours change, and become darker, and a cool breeze lifts the man es of the horses. Then, suddenly, the moon rises over Lake Chilwa, and it changes from blood-red to yellow-gold, and thence to yellow. The breeze grows stronger, and the horses become restless. At length the plain is li ght enough, and we gallop wildly off, like demons. Veronica Armstrong, Upper V CHASE Sleek black creature With eyes of green, Slinking through undergrowth, By birds unseen. See! on his prey he leaps, Swift as an arrow. A flurry of wings And away flew the sparrow. P. Jacobs, Lower V 26 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN MARY MACGULLOCH OF FIFE There once was a lord, who had sworn on his life To win for a lady the daughter of Fife; For the Earl of Fife's daughter, with sapphire-blue eyes, Was the fairest of maidens to have for a prize. So Lord Rupert he called for his pony and steed, And set out for the lady at lightning speed; He scarce stopped by town or by village or inn, But galloped yet faster fair Mary to win. Now Mary Macgulloch, the daughter of Fife, Was sought by a bandit who wanted a wife. His visage was dark, and Black Jack was his name, And robbery, pillage and murder his fame. Black Jack stopped at the gate of the Castle of Fife And demanded the hand of fair Mary for life. But the Earl locked the gate, making Black Jack stay out, And turned a deaf ear to his terrible shout. Fair Mary she wept, but her duty was plain: "I will marry Black Jack and free Fife again." Her father turned pale at the thought of the fate Of the daughter for who m his own love was so great. So Mary she stood on the ramparts of Fife And cried to Black Jack that she' d be his for life. So she sat up before him upon his black steed, And away Black Jack galloped at top of his speed. But what of Lord Rupert, so dashing, so bold? If he'd known Mary's fate his blood would have run cold. But he'd met with a dragon which needs he must slay, And this combat delayed him for over a day. Now Black Jack was escaping along the West Road, And upon the south side a broad, deep river flowed. Lord Rupert he galloped as if for his life On the same road Black Jack went with Mary of Fife. Black Jack he was gloating. "Lord Rupert," quoth he, "Would start tearing his hair if us now he could see." But scarce had he galloped a mile further on When he saw bold Lord Rupert coming post-haste along. "A duel!" cried our gallant, "for Mary of Fife!" And "Hands up!" cried the bandit, "for money or life!" But Lord Rupert unsheathed his bright flashing sword And Black Jack could do nothing but fight with the lord. The result of the combat fair Mary did dread, But Lord Rupert with one blow cut off Black Jack's head. He scarce stopped to re-sheath his sword and his knife But fell on his kne e before Mary of Fife. The earl he consented to Rupert the Brave Marrying Mary, whose life he d id gloriously save. So Lord Rupert he married fair Mary of Fife And lived happy w'ith her till the end of his life. D. Lavin THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 27 A THUNDER STORM Across the moonlit sky race heavy clouds like wild horses until they tum ble in a heap, a rearing mass of heads, arched necks and flying manes. G reat sheets of lightning make the whole world shimmer in the uncertain a nd unearthly light. Then the boom and crash of thunder make the world tr emble and resound. There is stillness when the rumbling has died away. S tillness only for one moment, until a flash of lightning like a gnarled old hand stretches out across the sky as though grasping but unable to c lutch, then drawing back once more. Another crash and then the sound of rain beating down on hundreds of roofs. Diana Dart, Middle V BASUTOLAND The sun is only now beginning to climb up into the sky, and as it does so , the early morning mists rise and reveal the mountains stretching range upon range into the distance. Way down below in the valley, a river meanders through small cultivated patches of land where cattle graze among the mealies, and men and women hoe the ground. There is a bridge across the river, which is known as th e Makhaleng, and the road pasies over this bridge and winds up through t he foothills to the mountasns beyond. The dusty colour of this road blen ds well with the surrounding countryside, but the clear-cut zig-zag of t he brick path comes as a sudden contrast to the peaceful atmosphere of t he valley. Even at this early hour, there is a small procession coming s lowly up the path. The horses are quite at home here, but even so, their riders have dismounted, and are walking beside their animals clad in th e brightly coloured blankets of which these people are so fond. A solitary hut stands by the roadside, surrounded by a broken wall. It has obviously been deserted for some time, and now stands sentinel over the v alley and the village perched on the slopes below. Long-haired sheep and g oats climb with agility up the mountainside, and in their wake trots a sma ll herdboy, whose job it is to take the flock to graze during the day, and to bring them back safely within the precincts of the village before nigh tfall. At this hour, nothing from the outside world has disturbed the peac e and quietude of this small part of the country, and the people go about their daily toil secure in the knowledge that theirs is a land of peace an d prosperity, inherited from that grandfather of their nation, Moshesh. Susan Arrowsmith, Matriculation I 28 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN DOMINICA The long, low shore, the waving palms, The pounding surf on the coral sands, The mountains with majestic calm Rising, stretching far inland. A small white cross on one hillside Marked the faithful's shrine, Where, as they passed, they knelt and prayed Blessing from the Divine. And nestling close beneath that hill A town of red and white Lay and basked day after day In the clear, bright light. The bells rang out for morning mass From the cathedral spire, And at the Fort the flag was raised In the manner of the Empire. The town opened its lazy eyes, And from the market place Came the sound of chattering vendors. Each and all with a smiling face. Then, as this island came to life With a new day, fresh and clear, The fishing boats drew into port And anchored off the pier. Susan Arrowsmith, Matriculation I LANGS DIE MURMELENDE STROOMPIE Dis so vreedsaam stil langs die murmele nde stroompie-daar waar die skadubeelde van die wilgerbome op die wate r-oppervlakte wieg; waar die varings en die ranke weelderig op die wat erkant groei, en selfs die klippe die wonder van die natuur swygsaam o ordink. Die stroompie gly lui en murmelend oor die kaal klippers- die enigste bewegende ding in daardie oase in die woeligheid van die alled aagse lewe. Geen voels is te bespeur, maar af en toe word'n helder gef luit gehoor, wat onmiddellik wegsterf tussen die dik, groen lower van die bome. Net hier en daar word die blaar-plafon deurdring deur'n eens ame sonstraaltjie, wat dansend beweeg op die klein golfies van die wat er, of spelerig tussen die varings verskyn en verdwyn met die gewieg v an die windjie in die blare. Met die herfs en koue val die blare, maar die stroompie lag aan oor die klippe, skitterend nou in die sonlig wat deur die kaal takke stroom, en sy murmelende gesprek vertel die geheim van die natuur, wat geen mens ma g verstaan nie. Leonae Brown, Matrikulasie I THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 29 DIT IS WEER LENTE . . . ,,Dit is weer lente, winter is verby, Kyk tog hoe staan die blomme in die vlei." So begin die ou liedjie wat so goed die lente en blommeprag van hierdie j aargety beskryf. Lente-wanneer alles groen is, lente-die begin van alles in die Natuur. Di e veld is'n blomtapyt, en teen die koppies vlam die pers en rooi, geel en oranje van die vygies; die geurige bergblomme, suikerbosse en sewejaartj ies-hul bedek die aarde. Die bome dra'n mantel van liggroen blare, en die akkerboom-lanings met hu l blare wat net uit die botsels gebars het, verfraai die stad. Op die plaas word die vrugtebome met amandel-, perskebloeisels en ander bedek, en die geur van hierdie heerlike bloeisels deurdring die hele t uin en vrugteboord. Die insekte sing die hele dag, saam met die voeltjies, wat hul nessies in die bome begin te bou. Die blomme in die tuine: katjiepierings, leeubekkies en honderde ander maak die stad'n paradys vol blommeprag. Die weer is heerlik; die warm son skyn vriendelik in die blou lug. Die riviere, met hul skaduryke wilgerbome wat weer met groen bedek is, en d ie see, is weer warm genoeg om in te swem. Dit is weer tyd om die visstok uit die kas te neem, en op die rivierwal in die sonskyn te gaan sit, terwyl jy met jou oe op'n skrefiegetrek, die dan sende dobber dophou. Die swaeltjies kom weer van die noorde terug, en die klein lammertjies bie r in die lande. Die lente is werklik die aangenaamste tyd van 'die jaar. P. Roberts, Antea-Mtrikulasie THE SEA AT NIGHT The splash of an oar-then silence-no more, The hush was the stillness of night, Just the gentle caress of the surf on the shore And a distant flickering ligh t. A song of contentment rose in my soul, I drank deep in the cool night air, I heard the sound of the breakers roll, Like a dream-so distant, so near. The sleeping sea was troubled by none, I watched the approach of day, And far away the rising sun Sent secrets over the bay. I felt the wind that blew through my hair, The spray in the wind like rain, I heard the swish as a gull brushed the air And the splash of an oar again . Helen Cluver, Matriculation I 30 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN LEARNING TO DRIVE Put off the brake, put your foot on the accelerator, pres s the starter, put in the clutch, put the car in gear, take your foot off t he accelerator and let out the clutch slowly. Then put your foot on the acc elerator and start steering. "That s all there is to it. The instructor, as you have no doubt guessed, is my father who has been dr iving for some twenty years. I carry out his instructions but I take my fo ot off the clutch and the engine stops. "I said 'Let out the clutch slowly '," says my father, in the voice of one rapidly losing patience. I repeat the performance except that I forget to accelerate and, as we are on an up hill slope, the car starts running backwards. In a panic, I ram my foot on the clutch and the car jerks to a stop. "The car won't go uphill without petrol," says my father in the bored voi ce of one who points out the obvious. The performance of starting is once more repeated, and this time I put my foot flat on the accelerator. The car lurches forward. A gigantic tree-trunk looms ahead. I cover my eyes w ith my hands. My father grabs the wheel and we miss the tree by an inch. "Sorry, Dad." Regretfully I climb from the car. That was my first and las t driving lesson. J. Plumpton FRAGMENT ON SWIMMING IN THE GALA (With apologies to Byron) I would to heaven that I were so much stone, As I am water, nerves, marrow, jelly, bone- Because, at least, in my head were not this drone- And for my arms-(but I write this drinking, Having lost all strength, and power of thinking, So that I seem to swim but all the while I'm sinking). I say-swimming is a serious matter- And so-without delay-lift me from the water. E. Sinclair, Matriculation II VOfiLS Daar in die bos is'n regte voelparadys, waar die bome'n koel, helder wa terpan beskermend omsingel. Hier jubel die gevogelte saam in'n bonte ko or, met bas en sopraan en alt en tenoor saamgesmelt in'n heerlike toeju iging aan die prag van die Natuur, met die droe, misterieuse geruis van die wind sag-strelend deur die blare as be-geleiding. Die gefluit en g efladder, die getierelier en gekwetter en gekweel weergalm deur die swa aiende takke van die bome-'n gesang van lewensgenot en ekstase wat die moee, mismoedige hart laaf en verbly, en die smarag-groen blare laat be we en vibreer. Leonae Brown, Matrikulasie, 1954 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 31 THE WRONG MAN A Fantastic Idyll A garden is waiting; the expectant petals hold themselves motionless les t they may by their trembling vibrate the still air, and thus miss the e xact moment of the man's coming; not a leaf blade on the banks of the sh immering pool is disturbed by a ripple on that smiling face of water. Th e trees bend towards one another in breathless commune; the grass sprawl s invitingly green right up to the very trunks of the willows and the oa ks. The crazy paving beckons pleasantly as it sinuously snakes in betwee n the willows to the one step set at a drunken angle among the weeds on the bank of the pond; a yellowish creeper twining under and around the g narled oak roots holds the yellow trumpets of its flowers erect to catch the most insignificant sound. The pansies turn their benign and genial faces questioningly towards the rough wooden gate slung rustically betwe en two oaks. Suddenly a wave of urgency passes from bough to bough, from leaf to tend ril, and from stem to petal. A footstep is heard, and the gate creaks op en. The flowers crane their slender necks, each blade of grass endeavour s to peep over the blade in front of it; the stems sway towards where th e discordant sound of the opening gate still vibrates in the perfumed ai r. But at the same instant a second message is felt in the living sap of every plant. Disappointment replaces eager anticipation; it is the wron g man. The tender green willow wands droop disconsolately over their ima ges in the water; the grass wilts back against the rich brown loam; the trees whisper sadly and turn away; the creeper flowers hang their heads against the rough, warm, living wood, and the pansies hide their luminou s faces amid the soothing green leaves. A breeze wails in gentle grief t hrough the supple leaves which give out a rustled word of comfort. The stranger strides confidently across the lawn, trampling the pliant gra ss shafts so that they lie bleeding white plant blood on to the place wher e his unheeding foot had been set. He glances contemptuously at the regal oaks. "Make too much shade for the house. I'll take down all the trees and plant one or two poplars." The trees are silent, inscrutable. . . And tha t mosquito-infested pool. Frogs, too, I'll be bound. Well, I'm damned if I 'll have my night's rest disturbed by the plaguey things. Now, a nice tile d swimming bath-one or two diving boards, and of course an up-to-the-minut e filtration plant." The pool lies mysterious, rippleless, aloof and auste re. "Pansies! So cheap and common! The chap was definitely demented. I mus t have the best." At his hard, unfeeling stare the pansies shrink deep er in among the leaves. Now that he has stopped speaking the hostile s ilence presses smotheringly about him. He feels choked-bereft of the p ower of locomotion-somehow cowed. Then his eye meets the crazy paving. "Crazy, the man was," and 32 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN his forced cackle of mirth bursts uneasily through the trees. "I'll take th at monstrosity away and we'll have a gravelled path from south to north; I' ll rebuild this place on straight, formal lines . . . have some order about it." He talked faster and louder as if to reassure himself. "A barbecue ov er where that willow is would be just the thing." Empty, empty silence. "No birds in the damn' place. It's dead, that's what it is-dead, dead, dead!" He realized that he was almost shouting. "The place is getting on my ne rves," he muttered, and set off across the lawn, under the oaks, and re ached the gate. Then he looked back. The garden lay reproachful and for bidding. He hurried away. When he had crunched over the gravel and was gone, the garden mourned w ith deep inexpressible grief: he of the loving heart and gentle fingers that could entice the most recalcitrant seed to push a green shoot alo ft was gone, never to return, and in his place was come the wrong man, to whom a garden meant artificiality and a place where he might enterta in his friends amid an atmosphere of affluence and modernity. Leonae Brown, Ante-Matriculation I OUR VISIT TO THE MINE Our visit to the mine had been eagerly awaited for some time. When at la st the day came, everyone was in the best of spirits and ready to depart . The School bus conveyed the party to the station where a mine bus was w aiting to take us the remainder of the journey. The journey, though a little noisy, was comfortable. After a drive lasting forty minutes, Mr. Taylor met our party at the entrance to West Rand Mine . We were first escorted to one of the compounds which was almost desert ed, as it was early morning. We were shown one of the mine-boys' rooms , the cleanliness of which greatly impressed us. The double row of bun ks with clean white sheets and embroidered pillow-slips were most impr essive. We next inspected the Recreation Hall where films are shown and dances held occasionally. From there we visited the married quarters. These consisted of two-room ed houses. Again, we were struck by the cleanliness and the beauty of t he gardens. We were then told to don overalls and hats preparatory to eoine undergr ound. Having filed into the cage, which we found very damp, we descended rapi dly a distance of about 5,200 feet. We were then supplied with lamps an d divided into groups, each group having a miner and boy as guide. We walked for some time along damp dark passages. Often the lamps bec ame extinguished and had to be relit by one of the boys. Mrs. Freer The North Face of St. Margaret's Glazed and Painted. m in ■■The Jubilee Wing-Dormitories and Classrooms.

The tunnels of the underworld having been explored, we returned to the surface. We changed our clothes. From the mine we were taken to the Recreation Room for the European min ers. Here we ate a good tea and later inspected the Club, greatly admir ing the decorations. The library was well stocked with books. We boarded the bus again and were taken to where the gold was being pou nded and crushed by machines. The gold was extracted and then smelted. The red-hot liquid was poured into a mould and left to cool. After seve ral chemical processes, a gold bar was finally produced which none of u s could lift single-handed. We returned to the Recreation Club where we had lunch. Later we visite d the North Compound and saw the enormous bakery and also the brewery. After looking at the cold storage room, which was filled with meat an d vegetables, we went into the centre yard. There we saw a large scree n on which films were shown. After a most enjoyable visit we returned, having first thanked our kind gui des. Ante-Matriculation Form JUNIOR SCHOOL Foremost in all our minds when thinking of the past year in Junior Schoo l, will be the progress and completion of our new buildings, which, in t he short time that has elapsed since we took possession of them, have be come already a part of us. The completion of the new wing of St. Margaret's by no means ended our b uilding operations, for during the Christmas holidays part of the old bu ilding underwent a transformation. Our hall, where we have all, at times , sat and shivered in the past, has become a spacious attractive room, w ith long windows taking the place of flapping blinds, and new and bright er lighting. It now fulfils the dual role of assembly hall and boarders' playroom. The diningroom (for so long a form room) has acquired a new d ignity, with its windows and door opening on to the swimming bath lawn-U pstairs the old dormitory overlooking the pool is already familiar to us all as our own Art Studio, while the little newcomers to the School are enjoying more classroom and cloakroom space in their enlarged Kindergarten. Despite the many upheavals, the normal work of the School has gone on w ithout interruption, and it was gratifying indeed when one of our own g irls won the Senior School scholarship. The months through which we worked to the accompaniment of numerous ea r-splitting sounds and continual moves, which at times became reminisc ent of "general post," certainly had their 34 THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN # * lighter side. But above all we learnt a new sense of co-operation and a re adiness to rise to the occasion. While many of the more practical minded among us, particularly the boys , miss our heart-to-heart discussions with carpenters and plumbers, we have all settled down to a year of steady work and, we hope, achievemen t. PARENTS' DAY Parents' Day was held on Saturday, November 21st. This year was of speci al interest to us as our new wing was to be officially opened. We arrive d at School at two o'clock, dressed in our School uniform. At about a qu arter-past two we collected just outside the Junior Hall and made our wa y up to the Founders' Hall, where our plays were to be held. We dressed in the Freer Room, chattering excitedly all the time. The plays were enjoyed very much, both by those acting and the audienc e. Kindergarten presented a clever "Roedean Alphabet": Transition gave an amusing performance of "The Queen of Hearts." This was followed by a colourful scene of "The Wind and the Sun" by Form I, while Form II dramatised the poem "The Fairies." The plays finished one by one and t he afternoon's performance concluded with the Nativity Play by Forms I II, Lower IV and Upper IV. When this was ended, we changed and went down to the Junioi School an d had tea. When tea was over we collected in the courtyard, where the official opening of the new buildings was made by Mrs. Wagner. When the tape had been cut and the building declared open, we found our pa rents and took them to see our work. Our books were on our deslcs in the classrooms. Our handwork and painti ngs were put up in the Junior Hall. We proudly took our parents to see the new dormitories, the new classr ooms, and cloakrooms. At about five o'clock we began leaving after a very enjoyable Parents' Da y. Gail Young, Lower IV ST. MARGARET'S DAY On Wednesday, June 17th, I woke up feeling that ther e was something exciting going to happen that day. I lay in bed, until suddenly I sat-up, for it had just dawned on me that it was the day I h ad been longing for-St. Margaret's day. I jumped out of bed and dressed, had breakfast and went to the classroo m for the morning's lessons. Everyone was chattering excitedly about th e coming afternoon. After lunch we had to rest for half an hour and then the moment THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 35 came when the bell went and we all changed into our gym shoes. We were all wearing our coloured rosettes by now, and hoped that they would bri ng us luck. Soon we were all down on the games field, sitting in our di fferent age groups, ready to begin. First, there was the potato race, followed by the sack race which was v ery amusing as nearly everyone fell down. Then came the egg and spoon r ace in which we enjoyed watching the expressions of concentration on ea ch other's faces. The last event was the high jump, in which the best j ump was four feet one inch. Soon we were all making our way up the paths to the swimming bath lawn where w'e had tea and enjoyed our St. Margaret's Day cake. We were an xious to hear the exciting news of who had won the laurel wreath. At last, it was time for the results of the sports. Third Form • came l ast, Lower IV third, Second Form second, and then we all knew that Upper IV had won. The captain went up to receive the wreath from Miss Le Maitre, and after wards it hung in a place of honour in the form room. Judith Castle, Upper IV THINGS 1 LIKE I like the golden autumn leaves; The pretty doves that coo; The running of the water clear; The large black cows that moo. I like the sound of buzzing bees; The birds that soar so high; Foaming waves that roar so loud: And swaying trees that sigh. Ships at sea I like to watch; A puppy with a ball; The round red sun when going down; The stately steeples tall. A tall green handsome fir tree; And white and crispy snow; I like the glowing candlelight; A boat I like to row. I like the far-off twinkling stars; The silvery moon above; The crowing of the cocks at dawn, These are the things I love.

Maud Sumner was in South Africa for several months last year. Maud held s uccessful exhibitions of her paintings here, in Pretoria and in Cape Town . After the exhibition here, we were privileged to have some of her pictu res in the Founders' Hall for a little private exhibition. The art critic of The Star said of her work: "Maud Sumner's work has reached mellowed m aturity and it is interesting to compare this artist's later versions of such sudject as "Ollerset" with her painting of the same scenes as she sa w them about ten or more years ago. These and other works are the reward of the thought, practice and study which transform a talented improvisor into a finished artist . . . these paintings seem the fruit of a mind at peace with itself." Maud still has her studio in Johannesburg and it was the scene of several parties where Old Girls congregated and listened to some of Maud's stories. She is as gay and amusing as she ever was in old study-tea days at School. Another distinguished Old Girl who visited us is Bertha Hagart. She gave recitals and broadcasts in the Union and in Rhodesia, but she also found time to play to us at Roedean, for which we are all most grateful. Bertha and Maud went back to England together in the Comet, spending a week on the way at Beirut and a week in Jerusalem. Lucy Sutherland has published a book on 18th Century politics of which the review reads: "Only an historian who has himself worked in the personal p olitics of 18th Century England will appreciate to the full the magnificen t scholarship that Miss Sutherland wears so lightly. Her lucid prose makes all simple and clear . . . the intellectual distinction of this book woul d be hard to match, and it is easily the most important contribution to 18 th Century political studies since Sir Lewis Namier published his 'Structu re of Politics'." We were delighted to welcome Ida Wagner (Van den Berg) back THE SOUTH AFRICAN ROEDEAN 41 just in time to open the Jubilee Wing of the Junior School. She has had a lovely holiday and spent some time travelling on the Continent with he r distinguished daughter Dr. Joan Wagner. Gwen Edwards is now at Warmbaths at the Non-Acute Hospital. She has ag ain, this year, sent a great deal of "news" for which we are most grat eful.

A very welcome visitor to Johannesburg in Scottie who has been staying with Deborah Lavin (Barber) and then with Ernestine Fouche (Van den Ber g). Many Old Girls have visited her and found Scottie as alert as ever and as interested in Roedean affairs, and busy making dolls' clothes fo r the Roedean morning market. In conclusion, here is a letter from Margaret Freer: ". . . My husband and 1 are thoroughly enjoying our country life. We are at Hogsback in the Eastern Cape and it is such fund having a new house and about ten acres of land to develop in such an extremely beautiful pa rt of South Africa. We are surrounded by mountains, forests, streams and waterfalls and we really like the mists and the frequent rainy days whi ch give us such a wonderful amount of water for developing the garden. W e hope to be almost self-supporting and we have already planted a vegeta ble garden and orchard and have started a poultry yard. In fact, we have not yet noticed anything in the way of retirement! We work extremely ha rd and find that the days are not long enough to carry out all our plans. "I was so sorry not to be present at Foundation celebrations as I was pa rticularly anxious to see as many Old Girls as possible to thank them mo st sincerely for the wonderful gift of the elegant mahogany writing tabl e and the large cheque with which they so generously showed their apprec iation of what I had been able to do for them during my years at Roedean . In one corner of my sitting-room I have the writing table and over it the framed pottery plaque of the School Crest given to me by the Board o f Directors; whilst frequently I am reminded of the generosity of the st aff and the girls of Roedean when 1 use my pressure cooker, stainless st eel dishes, beautiful glass bowls and candlesticks. Such tokens of real appreciation have made my retirement a very happy one. "I was delighted to receive a visit from Rosemary Brown recently. I hope she is only the first of many Roedeanians to find her way here, but visit ors must come on a fine day as our road is impassable to cars in wet weat her.' L.
